## Accumulated Context

### Decisions

Cleared at milestone boundary. v1.2 decisions archived in milestones/v1.2-ROADMAP.md.

Key v1.3 research findings (see research/SUMMARY.md):
- framer-motion@12.37.0 (already installed) handles drag-to-reorder via Reorder component — no new deps
- sort_order must use REAL (float) type, not INTEGER, to avoid bulk writes on every drag
- Impact preview must distinguish add-mode vs replace-mode by category match — pure addition misleads
- [Phase 10-schema-foundation-pros-cons-fields]: Empty string for pros/cons stored as-is (not normalized to null); test accepts either empty string or null as cleared state
- [Phase 10-schema-foundation-pros-cons-fields]: Pros/Cons badge uses purple color to distinguish from weight (blue), price (green), category (gray), and status badges
- [Phase 10-schema-foundation-pros-cons-fields]: Field-addition ladder pattern: schema -> migration -> test helper -> service -> Zod -> types -> hook -> form -> card indicator
- [Phase 11-candidate-ranking]: sortOrder uses REAL type for future fractional midpoint insertions without bulk rewrites
- [Phase 11-candidate-ranking]: 1000-gap sort_order strategy: first=1000, append=max+1000, reorder resets to (index+1)*1000
- [Phase 11-candidate-ranking]: Applied sort_order migration via sqlite3 CLI directly to avoid Drizzle data-loss warning on existing rows
- [Phase 11-candidate-ranking]: Resolved thread list view uses plain div (not Reorder.Group) — no drag, rank badges visible
- [Phase 11-candidate-ranking]: RankBadge exported from CandidateListItem for reuse in CandidateCard grid view
